Quote from Keyaki: “Quote from Hoju: “Snow day for the wife and kids today. Sort of a snow day for me. It's a work at home day for me. At least I get to be comfy at home and stay off the roads today. ” Lucky jerk... ” It's definitely a perk, lol.

Quote from Pietro: “I haven't played any of the Remake but have watched some streams. I will say that RE2 X gonna give it to ya, will probably be my favorite gaming meme of 2019. ” Someone has already modded that meme into the game, haha.

I normally don't buy games on release but the wife insisted that I buy it and play it for her. She refuses to play these types of 1 player horror games but loves watching them. She gets way too jumpy and panicked while playing them. So I have to play them for her, haha. I have pretty good nerves of steel when playing these so she's usually the one screaming during all the jump scares, haha. So far I'm enjoying this game. I think it does a pretty good job of modernizing the game while retaining t…

Recapping the last couple months of big purchases: New house. 2 couches, one smaller one for the living room and a big ass couch for the mancave Dining room table. 65" 4k tv. Xbox One X Upcoming: New freezer to put in the garage Gotta start saving my money now, haha.

Quote from GuardianFIN: “@Hoju That sucks. Maybe you had premonition to get at least some sleep. Cleaning the puke and changing bed cloth is not the number one choise for anyone at 3am Lucky you to be able to stay home. I really hope I eveventually would find such a job too. Def not looking forward to the time our daughter starts to be sick more often. She had chicken pox when she was 9 months and nothing since, not even fever So lets see what happens in Kindergarten ” Yeah, last night was not a…

After a week of staying up way too late each night I decided to get an early night last night. As my luck would have it, I'm cleaning up puke at 3am as one of my kids got sick. Luckily I can work from home on days like these so she's taking it easy watching her favourite cartoons and I'm having coffee.

Quote from Colu: “Ever have those momemts where you want to do something but you don't have any clue what, so you just get frustrated and have an even harder time deciding which makes you even more frustrated? Yeah, that's me right now. ” I tend to be very indecisive over what to do all the time. It's getting better since I moved but lack of free time usually has me overthinking how to use what little time I have to myself.

Mod Note: Just a heads up that it took me a few reads to understand what you were trying to get at with this thread. If you're looking for a debate or discussion on this, could you please organize your claims in a way that's easier for us to understand. You have mentioned multiple misconceptions but some are nested in quotes further down in your post. I would suggest that you point form the claims you are making then use the quotes to quote your supporting text.

Quote from Kae: “@Hoju so regardless of timezone (I went through each one in Canada, and the result was the same), you are... Sun sign Capricorn / Moon sign Aquarius (Hidden Content) ” These are always fascinating to read. I don't think I'm as outgoing as this suggests that there's definitely some traits of mine in there. Thanks for looking this up for me

the guy who I was dealing with didnt see my car loan in his system yet when it went to head office to the underwriter they saw everything. I think i was just unlucky and got someone who didnt know what they were doing. It eventually worked out, but it was a stressful headache. I'm finally super close to work. My commute is less than 10 minutes now. And we love our new home.

Quote from Kae: “We are buying and selling properties simultaneously. My personality type is: "thrives in chaos". If things get too routine I go crazy. My husband & I made the decision to move from the suburbs to the mountains. WELP; this is more than "chaos". I can't begin to tell you how stressful it has been. I knew it would be hard, but I've never experienced anything like this. Do you know that feeling in your face, around your eyes and cheeks, when you haven't slept for a while? I feel lik…

Quote from RealmWings: “And now the right is rushing to his defense and claiming that the man had come to "incite confrontation" or some shit. ” I have a few friends on Facebook who are more right leaning, and you can probably guess they are jumping to their defense as well. I have yet to view the video but it wouldn't surprise me that the maga hat folk would try to intimidate someone like that. Tolerance isn't what they're known for.

Quote from Emerald Isle: “Quote from Hoju: “old man Hoju turned 35 today. 35.. holy crap.. lol ” Oh for some reason I thought you were older... is there someone out there in the forums who is just a bit older then me so I can feel better? ” You just might be the grandpa of ZU I do think there are a couple people here in their 40s that are a close second.

Good evening Tead. So it looks like my whack a mole game was on point today. We took the kids to a Christmas light festival and they had a few carnival games. One was a 12-16 player whack a mole game. First one to 150 points wins the round. So I ended up winning a couple prizes for the kids. All that gaming over the years gave me the reflexes of a cat it seems, lol.

GOP supporters must be getting desperate to find any dirt on the dems if they are criticizing some rather tame dancing. I'm sure her dancing music video tops all the sexual assault allegations against multiple members of the GOP...

I've done a few level so far and it's been very fun. I've always enjoyed fps games. My pc shooter skills seem to be on point still in my old age, haha. Now I just need to decide on a daytime game to beat that's more appropriate to play when the kids are still up.

We got the kids a few Switch games for Christmas. Smash brothers, Mario Party and Pokemon Let's Go Evee. Smash Bros and Mario Party have been a blast to play as a family. I also picked up a new Xbox One X to compliment our new 65" 4k tv. I haven't played too much of it yet but the wife has been enjoying RDR2 in glorious 4k.

I can't remember specifics but I'm sure I've had some dreams of me playing something on the computer. Last night I had a dream I was up late watching TV deciding that I should probably go to bed. Then just as I was going to turn the TV and go to bed my alarm woke me up this morning. Fortunately I just had to drop the wife off at work and could go back home (i took today off).

My favs of 2018? Seeing my favourite video game cover metal band Powerglove live again for the first time since around 2013. And also being guestlisted to see the show for free. The perks of knowing the band members Selling our place and buying a better place closer to work. Life is improving with such a shorter commute this place is better in nearly every way. Instead of a carport to park the car, we have a two car garage so now we can park completely indoors and have more storage for our crap.…

2018 was a very tough year but did end on a more positive note. I'll start with the bad. Back in February, My brother in law, one of my wife's three brothers had passed away. It came to a shock to all of us. Sadly he succumbed to his addictions (addictions we never realized he had). I've been so close to the family for so many years that I felt like I had lost a brother too and had known him since he was a kid. The summer had brought what was supposed to be very happy news. On fathers day my wif…

I think we got our first family computer in 96. It was an IBM Aptiva with the 166hz Pentium Processor, I believe a 1.8GB hard drive. Maybe 16MB ram? Can't remember exactly. It had good ol' Windows 95. I think we got internet closer to year 2000. I remember being in high school when we finally got internet. I've of course tinkered with DOS, Windows 3.1 and pretty much every windows OS under the sun since then. I suppose I'm one of the older folks here (not the oldest though! lol). I joined here b…

Quote from N64: “Happy Holidays ZU. Forgive me that I think I might have to drop out of the forums since that I have stopped playing any Nintendo games or whatever games due to monetary restrictions due to being unable to keep up with the rest of the conversations about games that we used to chat on. Sold off my games and consoles to a second-hand shop to be able to file several cases against my ex spouse and even that still couldn't cover all legal costs. I finally got a day off for 25th this y…

What's your budget? There's lots of gaming laptops out there and some decent ones that aren't absurdly expensive. The gpu will be the big factor over how it will pump out the frames. Personally I'd try not to go any lower than a GTX 1050 TI gpu but it will depend on your budget.

Not a major accomplishment, but today I was out with the family at the mall and we demo'd the new Smash Brothers game at a Nintendo booth. Some young kid waiting behind me as I played said, "wow, my dad isn't as good as this dad." Well I'm a Smash Brother's veteran after all...

Quote from GuardianFIN: “@Hoju You can grow old, but never grow up, it's a trap! Or then do it right (Hidden Content) How old are your kids? I have 2 sons with my ex-wife, 11 and 8, and now a 1,5yo daughter with current wife. Trying to survive in full time job in foreign language, with shifts. It's hard, but doable ” My son is 8 and my daughter will be 5 in a couple days. Life definitely keeps me busy. Quote from Keyaki: “So for those who have full-time jobs... How the hell do you guys do it? I …

Quote from N64: “I don't know what to think about that, @Hoju. Here where we live, that comes off as sneering at people. If I were to use that quote here, they'd see me as rude. Please correct me if I am wrong. ” By definition the word 'immature' usually has a negative meaning. But the quote itself was taken from a TV show and was used as more light-hearted joke about not growing up.

Quote from GuardianFIN: “I guess people grow old and have no more time for ZU There comes family in the picture and ZU fades away. Work, other hobbies and finding a partner and you are all drained to contribute. I try my luck now and I can say one move makes it way more challenging when there's a 1,5yo, wife and work taxing your time ” Tell me about it. I faded from here for a long time then sort of had a midlife crisis and started to remember the good ol' forum days and all the friends I made b…

I'm no expert in the US political system but from what I understand, 1 person doesn't always equal 1 vote. I believe whatever changes made to the system should result in the winner actually having the popular vote.
